Alka-Seltzer original tablets

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have mixed feelings about this product… so let's start with the positive first… I tried this product for the first time after a super intense weekend at the gym which left me with a terrible tension headache. Enter Alka-Seltzer. For some reason watching and hearing the tablet dissolve was so satisfying and provided quick headache relief.. however the taste was terrible and I had a hard time finishing my glass of water…. "I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes".

Good product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn't realize that Alka-Seltzer created a product for pain relief, so when I had a headache and overall body pain, I decided to give it a try. It worked and was effective. My headache and aches went away pretty quickly. I will definitely use again.

Original?

While the price of this item may seem attractive (116 count) I do not believe it gives the same results as the smaller (24 or 36 count) original package contents do. Something seems to have been omitted in the formula to make this larger package attractive. Spend the extra money (very slight) and get the original (24 or 36 count)which seems to work much better. Also avoid the generic brands, not effective at all in my opinion.

Quickly Dissolve

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These tablets dissolved quickly into a glass of water so there was very minimal time waiting to take which I appreciated. I thought that the taste might be unpleasant, but really there was not much of anything there - just felt like a glass of fizzy water which was nice. Overall I liked these for when I get headaches and it forces me to drink a little more water. I will continue to use!

Meh

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was just ok, the taste wasn't terrible, but I would probably just take a pill instead. This world be inconvenient for me and probably would never reach for it. If you are someone that has trouble swallowing pills, this would be a great product, but no one in my household has that issue so we probably wouldn't use it.

Mixed Bag of Thoughts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you to Influenster for sending me this product to review for my honest feedback. I had no idea that Alka Seltzer made a NSAID! I recently started seeing my chiropractor for some back/hip pain and thought this would be a good time to test this out. I was super impressed by how quickly this worked. I think most of my paid was gone in 10-15 minutes. The con here is that it tastes awful. So bad, in fact, that I would use a measuring cup to measure out exactly 4 oz of water so I wouldn't have suffer more than necessary. There is a lot of packaging waste, but at the same time, it's convenient to throw the individually wrapped tablets in my purse. This is only useful if I'm somewhere I can get a small cup of water because the last thing I want to do is put them in my water bottle. I cannot with the leftover residue. Overall, it sounds like a bad review, but they worked so well and quickly, I would actually repurchase.

Works well & quickly

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried using this when I had some muscle and joint pain after exercising. I personally LOVE seltzer/anything fizzy, so I really liked the bubbles and the taste (it tastes a little salty almost, but not in a bad way). The product worked exactly as described - my pain started fading very quickly after about 15 minutes and the effects lasted for ~5ish hours. I will definitely be reaching for this product next time I am feeling sore or achy.

Definitely works!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband is a nurse and has been loving to take these after he gets off work for his body aches. Me on the other hand, I like taking them because I like how it fizzes up lol. The overall taste doesn't really stand out to me but I can testify that it also definitely works for headaches (plus you're drinking water which might be the source of the headache)

Alka Seltzer Original Effervescent Tablet

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] *** I received this product from Influenster and Alka Seltzer in return for my honest review. Pros: - Great size and value - Easily dissolves - Flavorless Cons: - Leaves the water a bit grainy. I have been using this product in conjunction with Epsom Salt Baths to relive the aches and tensions caused by working out. It does it job and does it well. I have no complaints and grateful for the fast acting effects.

Easy Dissolvable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Alka-seltzer was effective when I used it for a headache. I felt some of the pain was relieved after taking it and waiting about an hour. I was satisfied with the dissolveable tabs but I would not buy this again. There are so many tabs in the box it could last you for about 3 months.
